my body is malleable in the digital realm

mbimitdr explores an alternate future inspired by queer horror and my experience with medical transition.

forced to jump through hoops to get gender affirming care, i began thinking about how we relinquish control of our narratives and bodies to doctors. we make ourselves more palatable to convince them to give us care, we simplify our existence to fit into a 45 minute consultation. in return they make our bodies a more comfortable shape.

when you’re early in transition- pre coming out, just a private account on social media- you are able to idealise yourself, experiment with no consequences of transphobia and humiliation. you are malleable, you are exactly how you want to be percieved.

what if there was a downloadable software that you could use to medically transition from your bedroom? what if you could order the usb tools off the dark web?
